Grief is a natural response to a loss, and sometimes the pain of that loss feels overwhelming. Those who are grieving may experience a range of emotions like anger, disbelief, guilt and profound sadness, and feelings may vary greatly from day to day.
Anyone who is experiencing grief, no matter when their loss occurred or where they receive healthcare services, is welcome to attend a Grief Support Group hosted by Winona Health Hospice. The next support group begins Thursday, February 13.
Gatherings will be Thursdays from 4:30 to 6 p.m., February 13 through March 20 in the historic Watkins Manor House, Senior Living at Watkins, 175 E Wabasha Street, Winona, Minnesota.
Coping with grief is not something a person has to do alone. Many people find it helpful to listen and share their experience with others who are dealing with a loss. Those who attend will learn coping strategies and get tips and ideas for finding moments of joy. Attendees are encouraged to bring their questions and challenges and are welcome to share their thoughts as they are comfortable.
RSVP is appreciated. Those who have questions or would like to RSVP are invited to call Winona Health Hospice at 507.457.4468 or email: mkromrey@winonahealth.org.
